# Social Registry Social Registry (SR) is an independent module offered by OpenG2P to enable the creation of **registries** of individuals and groups of people with demographic data with advanced features that make the SR interoperable and easily fit into the digital public infrastructure (DPI) infrastructure of a country. The registry can host demographic data of both individuals and groups (family/household) and this data is privacy protected. SR offers the unique feature of issuing digitally signed credentials - Verifiable Credentials - to the beneficiaries. ## Functional architecture {% embed url="" %} Social Registry Functional Architecture {% endembed %} ## Salient features The salient features of OpenG2P Social Registry are the following: * Holds individual and household records with relationships * Share data with other systems via standard interfaces * Privacy controls on the data * Packaged for rapid deployment * Multiple update mechanisms * Automatic computation of scores like PMT * Easy user interface for administration * Deduplication tools including fuzzy deduplication * Registration in areas with no connectivity * Issue unique ID to individuals * Issue Verifiable Credentials --- # Agent Instructions: Querying This Documentation If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.
